Fig. 1.4.5 Business value across the different types of data.
In Fig. 1.4.5, it is seen that there really are three classes of business relevancy—business-
relevant data, business-irrelevant data, and potentially business-relevant data.

by a DBMS. Fig. 1.4.6 shows that all structured data are (at least potentially) business-
relevant.
